Greenwood Creek River Access is a free, day-use only BLM access point on the South Fork American River that serves as a take-out for the popular "C to G" (Coloma to Greenwood) run and a put-in for the lower Class III section.

The location has limited parking with overflow available at the nearby Magnolia Ranch Trailhead, connected by a short trail, and features composting toilets nearby.

Be aware that mountain lions and rattlesnakes inhabit the area, and commercial or organized group activities require a Special Recreation Use Permit.
